Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a workers compensation claim and an employment law case?

You might have both claims depending on your situation, and McConnaughhay Coonrod Weaver & Stern can evaluate which applies.

Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury?

Generally, workers compensation is your exclusive remedy, preventing lawsuits against your employer. However, exceptions exist if third parties caused the injury or your employer intentionally harmed you. The firm can determine if you have additional legal claims beyond workers compensation.

How does general litigation experience help with my workers compensation case?

Litigation experience means the attorneys at McConnaughhay Coonrod Weaver & Stern understand trial procedures and evidence rules. This translates to stronger case preparation, effective advocacy before administrative judges, and readiness to pursue appeals if needed.
